What is an ICR?

An Information Collection Request (ICR) is a federal agency's request for approval from the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) to collect information from the public. Under the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA), agencies must justify why the information is needed and how it will be used.

When are they submitted?

Federal agencies are required to submit an ICR whenever they create, renew, modify an information collection. Each ICR includes a description of the collection, supporting materials and documentation (such as forms, surveys, or scripts), and proof that the agency has met the requirements of the PRA.

The ICR is submitted to the The Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs (OIRA) within OMB for review and approval. OIRA grants approval for a maximum of three years, after which the collection must be renewed through a new ICR submission.

Where to find an ICR?

ICRs are publicly available on RegInfo.gov, and additional guidance can be found in the FAQs.

Note: Presidential Action influences are notated for ICRs received between January 20, 2025 and July 19, 2025.

Construction Standards on Posting Emergency Telephone Numbers and Floor Load Limits (29 CFR 1926.50 and 1926.250)

Key Information

Abstract

Section 29 CFR 1926.50(f) requires employers to post emergency telephone numbers at the worksite if the 911 emergency telephone service is not available. Section 29 CFR 1926.250(a)(2) requires that employers post the maximum safe load limits of floors located in storage areas inside buildings or other structures unless the floors are on grade. Posting emergency telephone numbers and floor load limits reduces employees’ risk of death and serious injury by ensuring that employment has been tested and is in safe operating condition.

Occupational Safety and Health Onsite Consultation Agreements (29 CFR Part 1908)

Key Information

Abstract

OSHA's On-Site Consultation Service offers free and confidential advice to small and medium-sized businesses in all states across the country, with priority given to high-hazard worksites. Consultation services are totally separate from enforcement and do not result in penalties or citations. The Consultation Program regulations specify services to be provided, and practices and procedures to be followed by the State On-site Consultation Programs. Information collection requirements set forth in the On-site Consultation Program regulations are in two categories: State Responsibilities and Employer Responsibilities. OSHA is proposing to revise the approved Occupational Safety and Health On-Site Consultation Agreements (29 CFR Part 1908), OMB Control Number 1218-0110, paperwork package to include the approved Process Safety Management On-Site Consultation Agreements (29 CFR 1908), OMB Control Number 1218-0281.

Electronic Federal Duck Stamp Program

Key Information

Abstract

The Electronic Duck Stamp Act of 2005 (Pub. L. 109-266), passed in August 2006, required that the Secretary of the Interior conduct a 3-year pilot program under which up to 15 States could be authorized to issue electronic Federal Duck Stamps, or E-stamps. In August 2007, eight States began issuing the E-stamps. More than 59,000 E-stamps were sold the first year of the pilot program. At that time, the E-stamp was valid for 45 days from the date of purchase and could be used immediately while customers wait to receive the actual stamp in the mail. After 45 days, customers were required to carry the actual Federal Duck Stamp while hunting or to gain free access to national wildlife refuges. As expected, the electronic program increased the availability of Federal Duck Stamps, making it easier for the public to obtain the stamps and enhancing public participation. Under our authorities in 16 U.S.C. 718b(a)(2), we have continued the Electronic Duck Stamp Program in the eight States that participated in the pilot, and, in 2012, more than 350,000 stamps were sold. From 2013-2023, we expanded the program by inviting all State fish and wildlife agencies to participate. We received applications and interest from another 30 States. Thirty-two of these States were accepted and 23 new States entered the program in this ten-year period. As of the end of 2016, we had a total of 30 States participating in the program. The Duck Stamp Modernization Act of 2023 (Pub. L. 118-25), signed into law on December 19, 2023, removed the 45-day limit on the E-stamp’s validity; the E-stamp is now valid from the date of purchase through June 30. To protect the tradition of the conservation “stamp”, a pictorial stamp will still be sent to each E-stamp customer each year after March 10 (end of the migratory bird hunting season). These will be slightly different in appearance from Federal Duck Stamps purchased through the U.S. Postal Service or consignees.

International Mail Duty Worksheet

Key Information

Abstract

A worksheet through which carriers will submit the information required by, and other information necessary to implement, Executive Order 14256, as amended. The worksheet is where the carrier will declare its duty collection methodology (i.e., ad valorem or specific duty) for the given month, package count, value (if applicable), and total duty amount. The second page will be utilized by the carrier to list the specifics of imported postal items. CBP will use this information to determine the amount of duty that carriers owe pursuant to Executive Order 14256, as amended. CBP can also use the worksheet as a reference when subsequently auditing carriers’ liability for duties.Emergency Justfication:Following the normal clearance procedures under the PRA would prevent the swift implementation of Executive Order 14256, as amended, via the International Mail Duty worksheet and would thereby constrain CBP’s ability to collect information needed to enforce the duties imposed under Executive Order 14256.

Key Information

Abstract

This project will be utilized to gain knowledge about the expression of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) from childhood through early adulthood that can inform efforts to improve the health and functioning of individuals with ASD as they mature. The SEED Follow-up Study will collect information from families through surveys on the health and functioning of individuals during childhood, adolescence, and young adulthood, and in-person assessments of cognitive abilities. Data obtained through this information collection may improve our understanding of which co-occurring conditions are most prevalent; increase our understanding of the needs of individuals with ASD; how the needs change with age and can be best met at different points in development; and inform research and public health policies on eligibility for services and public health outreach efforts, that could provide opportunities for education, employment, and social connection to improve the health, functioning, and quality of life among persons with ASD and their families. This CR adds Spanish versions for several of the instruments.

Motorcycle Crash Avoidance Technology Review

Key Information

Abstract

This information collection request (ICR) is to seek approval for a one-time, voluntary, and anonymous survey of motorcycle riders to obtain consumer-reported feedback and perspectives on the use and availability of advanced crash avoidance motorcycle technologies. At this time, there is no information regarding consumer use and understanding of current advanced safety technology on motorcycles. To gain perspective on U.S. motorcyclist consumers, NHTSA will survey a convenience sample of individuals who live in the U.S., are licensed to operate a motorcycle, own at least one motorcycle, and ride it at least six times a year. Beyond these eligibility requirements, respondents will not be limited by age, geographic location, income, sex, etc. We will ask survey respondents about themselves (e.g., characteristics, riding behavior), knowledge about current and proposed motorcycle technologies, as well as their willingness to use these technologies. This information collection request is for three is reporting collections: (1) an eligibility questionnaire; (2) an informed consent form; and (3) the survey questionnaire. Results from the anonymous questionnaire will be compiled into descriptive statistical summaries (numeric data) and thematic codes and narratives (text-based data from open-ended questions) and incorporated into a report will be published and available to the general public via the National Transportation Library. The results of the information collection will help NHTSA better understand consumer-based barriers and facilitators to advanced motorcycle crash avoidance technology deployment. By understanding these barriers and facilitators, NHTSA can better develop related policy and consumer education materials to improve safety through the increased uptake and safe use of advanced technologies for motorcycles. The data collection requires IRB approval and has received it.

Produce Regulatory Program Standards

Key Information

Abstract

This information collection helps establish and implement FDA's “Produce Regulatory Program Standards.” Section 1012 of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (21 U.S.C. 399c) authorizes FDA to administer training and education programs for employees of State, local, Territorial, and Tribal food safety authorities relating to regulatory programs. Also, under section 205 of the FDA Safety Modernization Act (codified in 21 U.S.C. 2224), FDA, together with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is directed to enhance foodborne illness surveillance to improve the collection, analysis, reporting, and usefulness of data on foodborne illnesses. As part of this effort, we have initiated programs that include developing and instituting regulatory standards intended to reduce the risk of foodborne illness through coordinated efforts with our strategic partners. Regulatory program standards establish a uniform foundation for the design and management of State, local, Tribal, and Territorial programs that have the responsibility for regulating human and animal food. Partnering with other regulatory officials also helps maximize limited resources in administering FDA regulations pertaining to the manufacturing/processing, packing, or holding of food for consumption in the United States.

Limousine Crashworthiness Safety Research

Key Information

Abstract

In an effort to understand the limousine market and the characteristics of limousine vehicles with respect to crashworthiness and occupant safety, and to comply with a Congressional mandate, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) is seeking approval for a new information collection request (ICR). Many federal safety regulations (e.g., FMVSS No. 208, 209, 210 pertaining to overall occupant protection and seat belts) do not currently apply to limousines and, as a result, the extent of limousine crash safety features and performance is not well known. Furthermore, limousine manufacturers fall into one of three categories (Vehicle Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM), OEM program participant, OEM program nonparticipants) and the respective differences of these manufacturer’s approach to fabrication and vehicle safety requires targeted research. The proposed NHTSA research will consist of a one-time voluntary interview to manufacturers that fall into one of the three groups related to the limousine market: a) Vehicle Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM), b) OEM program participant, and c) OEM program nonparticipants. The research will involve a maximum of 160 contacts for a request for an interview with a goal of 41 total completed responses. Recruitment will end when the 41 respondents with completed interviews are attained. Each interview will include approximately 10 – 15 open-ended questions about limousine fabrication intended for reporting on safety characteristics related to evacuation, crashworthiness, occupant seating, and restraints. Three versions of an interview guide will be used, one for each category of manufacturer, and the guides are intended as a framework for discussion rather than a strict script. It is possible that the respondents will not need to be asked each question separately if information is provided through responses to previous questions. The interviewers will not ask questions that are not presented on the interview guide. This information collection serves as a reporting collection. Interview results will be collected and summarized in a final report, which will include an executive summary, introduction, methodology, results, discussion, and conclusions of important market findings relating to the relevant crashworthiness safety topics. The report data will help provide NHTSA with information necessary for cost-benefit analyses and will be made available to the public. This is a new information collection and is not required to go through an Institutional Review Board. This new ICR is a one-time collection that is anticipated to be completed within three years. The Annualized Burden Hours is estimated to be 53 hours and annual labor costs are estimated to be $6,137. There are no additional costs beyond the cost of any hour burden (labor costs).

Financial Responsibility, Trucking and Freight Forwarding

Key Information

Abstract

FMCSA is seeking approval of revision of the ICR. This ICR has two collection periods. The first period covers the six months prior to the implementation of the Broker and Freight Forward Financial Responsibility Final Rule. There are no changes to the respondents, responses, burden hours or annual burden costs for this period. The second collection period covers the 2.5 years following the implementation of the Broker and Freight Forward Financial Responsibility Final Rule. This collection period has 200,147 respondents, 290,345 responses, 49,722 annual burden hours and a total annual burden cost of $1,725,372. This program change increase, to the existing ICR of 283 hours is due to updates made to three forms, BMC-36, BMC-84, and BMC-85 due to the implementation of the Broker and Freight Forwarder Financial Responsibility Final Rule. This ICR consists of 11 forms/ICs: IC-1, form BMC-91, IC-2: BMC-91X, IC-3: BMC-34, IC-4: BMC-82, IC-5: BMC-83, IC-6: BMC-84, IC-7: BMC-85, IC-8: BMC-35, IC-9: BMC-36, IC-10: BMC-IC-11: BMC-32. These mandatory forms are used annually for reporting purposes, by for-hire motor carriers, freight forwarders and brokers to meet the statutory requirement to submit evidence of financial responsibility prior to their registration by the FMCSA as condition for continuation of their registration. The ICR allows the FMCSA to ensure the public is protected and will be compensated for claims involving bodily injury and property damage, or loss or damage to household goods, respectively, within the limits prescribed by FMCSA. The ICR enforces the filing of surety bonds or trust fund agreements to help ensure that motor carriers and shippers are protected against non-performance of the broker’s or freight forwarder’s legal obligations. Insurance companies can be held liable for any damages that may occur to the public (up to the limits of the policy), and to supersede any exclusions or limitations which may be contained in the insured motor carrier’s or freight forwarder’s policy. Additionally, FMCSA can make a determination regarding whether an entity qualifies for the grant of self-insurance authority.
